Foothills County is giving property owners an opportunity to save on their taxes.
Those who pre-pay their estimated 2025 property taxes in full on/or before Jan. 31 will receive a six per cent discount.
Foothills County also offers a five per cent discount for those enrolled in the Monthly Tax Installment Payment Plan (TIPP) on/or before Jan. 31.
Those pre-paying their property taxes will still receive a tax notice that will show the full levy, the discount and the prepayment as a credit. If there is a difference between estimated and actual taxes, the balance will be reported on the tax notice.
Credit balances will be refunded or carried forward to the next tax year, at the discretion of the ratepayer. If the amount paid was less than the actual tax levy, the balance owing is due by Oct. 1.
